About

Kiko is a web calendar for anyone who wants to keep and share a calendar online. Kiko excels at three main things: * Universal access: Kiko integrates with your mobile phone and AIM and lets you access your calendar from any computer. * Share your calendar: Invite anyone to events (not just other Kiko users!) Let others view your calendar with just a click. * As easy as paper - or maybe easier: Write "Pay gas bill every month" onto your calendar and watch Kiko do the Right Thing!
